Children & Teens
Yoga and mindfulness have been shown to have a positive impact on children and young people for their physical, mental and emotional health: helping build strength, mobility and resilience; managing stress and anxiety; improving focus; and in all of these providing tools that they can take away and use to support their own wellbeing.
I am fully qualified and insured to teach Yoga from age 3 all the way up to 18. Classes are designed for the age of the children and are fun, imaginative, inclusive and non-competitive.
Please contact me with any questions or to enquire about Yoga in your school or pre-school.
Mini-Yogis (from 1st July)
Wednesdays 10:00-10:30 at the Birdhouse Cafe
Come with me on a different adventure each week! These fun and playful outdoor Yoga sessions are aimed at preschoolers, but open to children from 2 1/2 to 7ish.
Using stories, games and imagination to guide us, through movement, breath, balance, co-ordination, focus and relaxation. These sessions are held next to the Birdhouse Cafe in the beautiful surroundings of Pinces Gardens in St Thomas, Exeter.
These sessions are £5 (£8 for two siblings) and will run from the 1st July throughout the summer holidays with a couple of exceptions. No booking required, just drop in and pay by contactless on the day. Sessions are weather-dependent and may be cancelled at short notice due to rain, see my socials for updates.
Please ensure that children are wearing clothing appropriate for the weather and that they can move about in. Parents are required to stay for the duration of the session and are welcome to join in! Or of course just watch whilst enjoying the hospitality of the Cafe...
See you in the park!
Yoga for Schools
One-off sessions and regular clubs
If you are considering introducing Yoga and Mindfulness in your school please get in touch, whether you are looking for one-off sessions or to set up a regular club, either within or around core hours.
Sessions are designed flexibly in order to work within your timetable and can be designed to address specific topics, in order to integrate them into your curriculum, or to support your existing enrichment, PE, PHSE or wellbeing programmes.
“Activities like yoga and mindfulness are increasingly integrated into the curriculum to support mental health. These practices are often included in Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education, which aims to develop pupils' emotional literacy, resilience, and self-regulation. For example, some schools have incorporated yoga sessions focusing on stress management and emotional regulation.” GOV.UK
